Microsoft Network (MSN) has dropped its Amateur Radio Forum, reports the unofficial forum manager Rick McMillion, WB7UGZ. He said MSN gave him the word recently in a terse e-mail message. McMillion says he had no warning that MSN was going to dump the forum. He told MSN in a reply message that in light of a growing ham population and the challenges facing the Amateur service, MSN’s action “couldn’t have come at a worse time.” McMillion said he hopes that when MSN moves to the Internet, it will offer some sort of Amateur Radio information exchange.
